Quick Quotes

Q. All right, joining me today after the third round of the LOTTE Championship is Minami Katsu. Great round today. Can you talk about what went well?

MINAMI KATSU: (Through translation.) I feel like my putt today was working really well, even though it has some bad shots. I think I was able to keep a good par save on -- with my putting. I had a pretty long birdie putt, too so I felt like that kept my momentum going today.

Q. You had a really great start at the Walmart Championship two week ago. Do you feel like something is clicking with your game right now?

MINAMI KATSU: (Through translation.) I feel like my swing is really consistent right now. I've been working my core with my trainer. I feel like that's one of the reasons I've been able to have a consistent swing.

Q. As you look to the final round tomorrow, you're solidly in contention. What are you going to be focused on?

MINAMI KATSU: Yeah, obviously I'm sure there will be a lot of wind tomorrow, too. Hopefully just try to be patient and hopefully I finish with a smile at the end.
